The HeadLine 2 is an amplifier designed to offer premium performance from a wide variety of high impedance headphones.

The amplifier is factory fitted with a captive lead designed to take its signal from the tape socket of any Naim preamplifier apart from the NAC 152 XS. It has its own volume control and is designed to be very, very quiet in operation and will drive most headphones to a high level whilst retaining very low distortion.This is very important as headphones tend to be highly revealing of both noise and distortion, so that is why Naim have gone to great lengths getting these parameters to extremely low levels.

The HeadLine needs to be used with an external power supply such as the NAPSC as a minimum. If using a FlatCap XS, HiCap or SuperCap to garner even greater performance then you will also need a special interconnect; the SLIC.

Adam ★★★★★

My Sennheiser HD 800s finally have the headroom they deserve—the high impedance support makes everything sound effortless. The clarity and separation are just right, even at lower volumes.

Carter N. ★★★★★

Finally an amp that actually drives my 300-ohm headphones without any distortion at all. The captive lead feels solidly built and keeps the signal clean from source.

Robert ★★★★★

Pairing this with my high-impedance headphones completely transformed the detail I was missing before, even at lower volumes. The built-in cable is short but well-shielded, and the overall clarity is noticeably cleaner than my old setup.
